PCDLRN ActiveX DLL > PartProgram Object : GetVariableValue Method

Glossary Item Box

# Description

This method returns a variable object specified by the string in VarName.

# Syntax

Visual Basic
    Public Function GetVariableValue( _
       ByVal VarName As String _
    ) As Variable

# Parameters

VarName
  String value representing a variable object.

# Return Type

Variable object.

# Remarks

PC-DMIS variables only hold values during execution; at learn time PC-DMIS variables have a value of zero. The GetVariableValue and SetVariableValue methods only change a variable's value during the script's execution. If you want to permanently change a value of a variable inside PC-DMIS, you should use the PutText method instead.

# Example

See Sample Automation Script 1
